Autorentext
Prof. Dr. Walter Rudin ist Professor (em.) an der University of Wisconsin-Madison, USA. 1949 machte er seinen Ph.D. an der Duke University, North Carolina. Anschließend arbeitete er als Dozent am Massachusetts Institute of Technology, von wo er 1959 an die University of Wisconsin-Madison wechselte. Bekannt wurde Walter Rudin vor allem durch seine mittlerweile in 13 Sprachen übersetzten Analysis-Lehrbücher. In seinen Forschungen befasste er sich hauptsächlich mit harmonischer Analysis und komplexen Variablen. 1993 wurde ihm von der Amerikanischen Mathematischen Gesellschaft der "Leroy P. Steele Prize for Mathematical Exposition" verliehen.

Klappentext

The third edition of this well known text continues to provide a solid foundation in mathematical analysis for undergraduate and first-year graduate students. The text begins with a discussion of the real number system as a complete ordered field. (Dedekind's construction is now treated in an appendix to Chapter I.) The topological background needed for the development of convergence, continuity, differentiation and integration is provided in Chapter 2. There is a new section on the gamma function, and many new and interesting exercises are included.

This text is part of the Walter Rudin Student Series in Advanced Mathematics.
